Blitz Preview: United v Hawks

It's game day on the Gold Coast as the Hawks launch their NBL Blitz pre-season campaign against Melbourne United.

Both teams will take new-look rosters into the new NBL season, and this evening's match-up will be the chance for fans to see several players in Hawks colours for the first time.

Import forward Gary Clark will join Lachlan Olbrich, Hyunjung Lee, Todd Blanchfield, former United championship winner Mason Peatling and Next Star AJ Johnson in their official Hawks debut.

Head Coach Jacob Jackomas will use the Blitz to test the depth of his new squad, with all rostered players to hit the floor at various stages across the week.

Melbourne United will field a side full of national and international talent headlined by Matthew Dellavedova, Chris Goulding, Luke Travers, and import guard Ian Clark.

You can watch all the action live and free from 5pm AEST on Kayo Freebies.
